WWE Crown Jewel 2019: 5 Interesting stats and facts every fan needs to know

#2 First-ever women's match in Saudi Arabia

The first-ever women's match in Saudi Arabia takes place tomorrow night

It was announced as part of the Crown Jewel media event by Michael Cole earlier today that the first-ever Women's match will take place in The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Lacey Evans will take on Natalya in what is considered one of the biggest steps for the Women's Revolution in recent years.

The women of WWE first made their breakthrough in Saudi Arabia when Renee Young was given the green light to perform behind the commentary desk as part of last year's Crown Jewel. Back in June, both Natalya and Alexa Bliss made the trip with their male counterparts in the hopes that the company could convince the Saudi Arabian authorities or GSA to allow them to compete, but this wasn't the case and sadly they were forced to watch on the sidelines once again.

This time around, Renee Young won't be behind the commentary desk so instead, Lacey Evans and Natalya will be given their time to shine in the ring. As well as these two women, Lana made the trip to the Middle East, so it will be interesting to see what role she will play in the show.
